Letterhead: Eaton & Lewis
New York March 24, 1892
Thomas A. Edison, Esq.,
Mr. A.O. Tate, Private Secretary.
Dear Sir:
Re Foreign Toy Phonograph Patents. Replying to your favor of the 15th inst., after considerable investigation, I beg to say that Mr. Edison’s contracts with the E.P.Toy M’f’g. Co. do not require him to notify them in regard to the payment of annuities on foreign patents.
The time for paying the amities was March 11th, but you did not write me about it until March 15th. However, it makes no difference, as Mr. Edison is not required to notify the company.
You say that Mr. Edison will not pay the annuities himself. Nevertheless I beg to say that in case he wishes to, he can still take advantage of the extended time, varying from six weeks to six months, allowed by all the countries in question, except France.
I return all of the correspondence herewith.
Very truly yours.
[Signed S.B. Eaton]
